Last Saturday, on the 27th of June, the 9th meeting for physicians and patients organised by the Chiari & Scoliosis & Syringomyelia Foundation (CSSf) took place on Lublin, Poland. The event counted with the collaboration of the Delegation of the Polish Neurosurgical Society and the Institut Chiari & Siringomielia & Escoliosis de Barcelona.

The event was accredited by the European Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education” (EACCME) for specialised medical activities, and was honoured by the presence of the renowned professor in Neurosurgery Krzysztof Turowski, as the symposium’s host and presenter.

The distinguished neurosurgeon and neurologist Dr Miguel Bautista Royo Salvador presented most recent advances regarding research, diagnosis and treatment of the Filum Disease introducing the Filum System® method, its application and excellent outcomes for the conditions Arnold Chiari I Syndrome, idiopathic Syringomyelia and idiopathic Scoliosis.

Clinical psychologist Mrs Gioia Luè presented a qualitative analysis of the outcomes of the application of the mentioned method in the patients’ quality of life. Patients with these diagnoses were operated according to the Filum System®.

In the afternoon, the meeting ended with a clinical session that was open to discussion and had been prepared by the resident doctor Paweł Szmygin.

We would like to thank the Delegation of the Polish Neurosurgery Society, and especially Professor Turowski, for the invaluable hospitality and availability to welcome the members of the Chiari & Scoliosis & Syringomyelia Foundation with such charm. We also would like to acknowledge Ms Barbara Wróblewska in a special way for the impeccable organization of the event.

We hope that this was just the start of an intensive collaboration that we would like to continue with the same success as much on the level of professional cooperation as regarding the benefit for Polish patients suffering from the Filum Disease.
